The Vijay Hazare Trophy 2025-26 gets rolling on December 24, and one of the early fixtures that has grabbed attention is Mumbai vs Sikkim in Elite Group C at Jaipur. Mumbai, one of India’s most storied domestic sides, are entering the tournament with a mix of experience and youth as they look to make a statement in the 50-over format.
With Rohit Sharma playing in the opening match against Sikkim, there’s an added buzz around the encounter, even though a few other stars are set to miss early games as the side tries out combinations.
Sikkim, on the other hand, arrive as underdogs but with plenty to prove. The Himalayan state’s team, led by the likes of Nilesh Lamichaney and Lee Yong Lepcha, has been steadily building its presence in Indian domestic cricket since its entry into the Vijay Hazare setup.
Players such as Mandup Bhutia and others will be eyeing the game as a chance to challenge more established sides and showcase their skills on a bigger stage. For Sikkim, every match in the elite group is about growth and grabbing moments to threaten stronger opponents, something that makes their clash with Mumbai an intriguing watch.
